An object at rest starts accelerating.
If it travels 20 meters to end up going 10 m/s.
what was its acceleration?
Variables:
Equation and Solve:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We are given:

initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

final velocity (v) = 10 m/s

displacement (s) = 20 m

acceleration (a) = a m/s/s

Solving for 'a'

From the third equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

replacing the variables

(10)² - (0)² = 2(a)(20)

100 = 40a

a = 100 / 40

a = 2.5 m/s²

Design a tension member and slip-critical splice to carry a factored load of 500 kips. Please use a wide-flange section for the tension member. Please use A572 Gr. 50 steel plates for the splice plates. Please use Group B, A490 bolts for the splice connection. The splice connection should be slip-critical, and have adequate strength after slip occurs as well. Please make any other assumptions you need in order to complete the problem. Provide detailed sketches and drawings for your design.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check the explanation section.

Explanation:

For the design we are asked for in this question/problem there is the need for us to calculate or determine the strength in fracture and that of the yield. Also, we need to calculate for the block shear strength.

From the question, we have that the factored load = 500kips. Also, note that the tension splice must not slip.

Also, the shear force are resisted by friction, that is to say shear resistance = 1.13 × Tb × Ns.

Assuming our db = 3/4 inches, then the slip critical resistance to shear service load = 18ksi(refer to AISC manual for the table).

If db = 7/8 inches, then the shear force resistance for n bolt = 10.2kips, n > 49.6.

The yielding strength = 0.9 × Aj × Fhb= 736 kips > 500

The fracture strength = .75 × Ah × Fhb = 309 kips.

The bearing strength of 7/8 inches bolt at the edge hole and other holes = 46 kips and 102 kips.

A car traveling at 27 m/s slams on its brakes to come to a stop. It decelerates at a rate of 8 m/s2 . What is the stopping distance of the car?

Answers

v² - u² = 2 ax

where u = initial velocity (27 m/s), v = final velocity (0), a = acceleration (-8 m/s², taken to be negative because we take direction of movement to be positive), and ∆x = stopping distance.

So

0² - (27 m/s)² = 2 (-8 m/s²) ∆x

x = (27 m/s)² / (16 m/s²)

x ≈ 45.6 m

The stopping distance of car achieved during the braking is of 45.56 m.

Given data:

The initial speed of car is, u = 27 m/s.

The final speed of car is, v = 0 m/s. (Because car comes to stop finally)

The magnitude of deacceleration is, [tex]a = 8\;\rm m/s^{2}[/tex].

In order to find the stopping distance of the car, we need to use the third kinematic equation of motion. Third kinematic equation of motion is the relation between the initial speed, final speed, acceleration and distance covered.

Therefore,

[tex]v^{2}=u^{2}+2(-a)s[/tex]

Here, s is the stopping distance.

Solving as,

[tex]0^{2}=27^{2}+2(-8)s\\\\s = 45.56 \;\rm m[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the stopping distance of car achieved during the braking is of 45.56 m.

"What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant?"

Answer:

the pressure inside the container become 0.625 atm if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant

Explanation:

Given that;

P₁ = 1.00 atm

P₂ = ?

V₁ = 1 L

V₂ = 1.60 L

the temperature of the gas is kept constant

we know that;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

A designer is creating an obstacle for an obstacle course where a person starts on a moveable platform of height H from the ground. The person grabs a rope of length L and swings downward. At the instant the rope is vertical, the person lets go of the rope and attempts to reach the far side of a water-filled moat. The left side of the moat is directly below the position where the person will let go of the rope. The designer runs several tests in which the rope has different lengths and moves the platform such that the rope is always initially horizontal. The designer notices that the person cannot land on the other side if the length L is very short. The designer also notices that the person also cannot land on the other side if the length L is very close to the height H.

Assume the size of the person is much smaller than the lengths L and H. Let D represent the horizontal distance from below the release point to where the person lands.

Required:
a. Why does the person land in the moat if the rope's length is very short?
b. Why does the person land in the moat if the length is nearly the same as the height of the platform?

Answers

Answer:

* when L → H    chord too long

in this case we see that the speed to cross the well grows a lot (it goes towards infinity) therefore we do not have enough speed in the movement to cross

* when L → 0 very short string

         the speed of the platform is very small, so we do not have the minimum required value

        vox = √ (g / (2 (H)) D

Explanation:

For this exercise we are going to solve it using conservation of energy to find the velocity of the body and the launch of projectiles to find the velocity to cross the well.

Let's start with the projectile launch

as the body leaves the vertical its velocity must be horizontal

         x = v₀ₓ t

         y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²

when reaching the ground its height of zero (y = 0) and the initial vertical velocity is zero

         t = √ 2 y₀ / g

we substitute

        x = vox √2y₀ / g

        v₀ₓ = √(g / 2y₀)     x

In the exercise, it tells us that the width of the well is D (x = D) and the initial height is the height of the platform minus the length of the rope (I = H - L)

       v₀ₓ = √(g /(2 (H -L))    D

this is the minimum speed to cross the well.

Now let's use conservation of energy

starting point. On the platform

      [tex]Em_{o}[/tex] = U = m g H

final point. At the bottom of the swing

      Em_{f} = K + U = 1 / 2m v² + m g (H -L)

as there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserved

        Em_{o} = Em_{f}

       m g H = 1 / 2m v² + m g (H -L)

        v = √ (2gL)

let's write our two equations

the minimum speed to cross the well

       v₀ₓ = √ (g /(2 (H -L))    D

the speed at the bottom of the oscillatory motion

       v = √ (2g L)

we analyze the extreme cases

* when L → H    chord too long

in this case we see that the speed to cross the well grows a lot (it goes towards infinity) therefore we do not have enough speed in the movement to cross

* when L → 0 very short string

         the speed of the platform is very small, so we do not have the minimum required value

        vox = √ (g / (2 (H)) D

From this analysis we see that there is a range of lengths that allows us to have the necessary speeds to cross the well

      V₀ₓ = v

      g / (2 (H -L) D² = 2g L

       4 L (H- L) = D²

        4 H L - 4 L2 - D² = 0

        L² - H L - D² / 4 = 0

let's solve the quadratic equation

      L = [H ± √ (H2-D2)] / 2

we assume that H> D

       L = ½ H [1 + - RA (1 - (D / H) 2)]

The two values ​​of La give the range of values ​​for which the two speeds are equal

A) The person lands in the moat if the rope's length is very short because :

The speed of the platform is less than the required minimum speed

B) The person lands in the moat if the rope length is similar to the height of the platform because :

The speed required to cross the moat approaches infinity

Following the assumptions;

size of the person is much smaller than L and H

D = horizontal distance

The conditions that will cause the person to land on the moatThe person will land in the moat when the rope's length is very short because as the rope reduces in length the speed reduces as well such that the speed of the platform goes below the required minimum speed which will enable the person cross over.  while As the magnitude of the length tends towards the same magnitude of the height the speed required to cross the moat increases towards infinity and this speed cannot be attained by the person hence he will land in the moat.

Hence we can conclude that The person lands in the moat if the rope's length is very short because The speed of the platform is less than the required minimum speed  and  The person lands in the moat if the rope length is similar to the height of the platform because,the speed required to cross the moat approaches infinity.

Answer:

a

b

[tex]T_2 =  576^oC[/tex]

Explanation:

From the ideal gas law we have that

     [tex]PV  =  nRT[/tex]

We see that the temperature varies directly with the pressure so if there is an increase in temperature that pressure will increase

   The initial  temperature is [tex]T_i  =  10^oC = 10 + 273 =  283 \  K [/tex]

The objective of this solution is to obtain the temperature of the gas where the pressure is tripled

Now from the above equation given that nR and V  are constant  we have that

    [tex]\frac{P}{T}  =  constant[/tex]

=>  [tex]\frac{P_1}{T_1}  =\frac{P_2}{T_2}[/tex]

Let assume the initial  pressure is [tex]P_1 =  1 Pa[/tex]

So tripling it will result  to the pressure being [tex]P_2 =  3 Pa[/tex]

So

     [tex]\frac{1}{283}  =\frac{3}{T_2}[/tex]  

=>   [tex]T_2  =  3 *  283[/tex]

=>    [tex]T_2  =  3 *  283[/tex]

=>    [tex]T_2  = 849 \ K [/tex]

Converting back to [tex]^oC[/tex]

   [tex]T_2  =  849 -  273[/tex]

=>  [tex]T_2 =  576^oC[/tex]
